Note

<p style="text-align: justify;">
• Primarily used as a shale inhibitor as the potassium ion exchanges with calcium and sodium ions n the interlayer space in illites and smectites, converting them to more stable mica-type structures that do not hydrate and swell.<br />
• Used to prepare brines for drill-in, completion, and workover fluids</p>
